Liberation for $1.76 Trillion

Pelosi: Obamacare is a 'liberation'

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) called the Affordable Care Act a "liberation" in a Thursday press conference celebrating the law:

PELOSI: This is a liberation. This is what our founders had in mind–ever expanding opportunity for people. If you want to be a photographer or a writer or a musician, whatever–an artist, you want to be self-employed, if you want to start a business, if you want to change jobs–you no longer are prohibited from doing that because you can’t have access to health care.
